Reestablish on-site meal production while your permanent kitchen is repaired or rebuilt after fire, flooding, storms, or other damage. KCI plans temporary kitchen facilities around your recovery needs, site conditions, and reconstruction schedule.
Damage to a permanent kitchen can leave a facility without the space needed for daily meal preparation. A temporary kitchen provides dedicated production space during the repair and reconstruction period. KCI works with facility operators and project teams to plan kitchen capacity around the people being served, available installation space, and anticipated recovery timeline.
Recovery work can affect building access, available utilities, and the space needed for a temporary kitchen. Review the proposed installation area, delivery routes, meal-distribution needs, and repair schedule with your project team. These details help establish where the kitchen can be placed and what site preparation is needed before installation.
KCI configures cooking, preparation, cold storage, and warewashing areas around your menu, meal volume, and staff workflow. Our team handles delivery and installation and assists your project team in coordinating site access and utility connections. The temporary facility supports meal production while work on your permanent kitchen progresses.
Explore production kitchens and support units based on the functions your facility needs to replace, the space available, and the expected repair duration.
